goin' on a road trip, 1 2 3
goin' on a road trip, my friends and me

we'll be happy when the day is done
'cause we're a-travelin', travelin'
oh travelin', travelin'
we're a-travelin', travelin'
travelin' down the road
goin' down the road feelin' oh-so-fine
trancin' on the rhythm of the center line
big wheels turnin' round and round
on a grand adventure we are bound
I got my map and my compass, they're the best
for tellin' me north south east and west
but what's in the middle, does anyone know?
I guess WE are, wherever we go!
oh no, oh no it's a traffic JAM, JAM, JAM,
oh yeah I say JAM, JAM, JAM...
car jam jeep jam double decker bus jam
bug jam beetle jam chuckwagon van jam
front loader back hoe mixer digger roller jam
dump truck garbage truck red fire truck jam
bike jam scooter jam motorcycle pickle jam
pogo stick unicycle scooter skateboard jam
hybrid electric solar-powered WOW jam
summer jam hummer jam big fat bummer jam
goin' on a road trip 123
goin' on a road trip, my friends and me
we're stuck in traffic after all our talk
I guess we better just get out and walk

Partner Dance
05:30
|

take your partner by the hand
and give a little bow
spin a ring around the rosie
I know you know how
jump up and down like a speckled frog
go bouncin' 'round the room
make some rollin' thunder now
make your feet go crash and boom!
don't forget to bounce around
your bellybutton too!
ring around the rosie
pocket full of posies
ashes ashes ashes
we all fall down
take your partner by the hand
and give a little squeeze
quiver your head and shoulders
and shiver your toes and knees
shake your head no no no
and nod your head yup
eat up all your ice cream
we'll have pickles after supper
raise your glass to the chef
that means put your cup up
ring around the rosie…
cows in the grassy meadow
eating up those butter cups
ashes ashes ashes
we all jump up
take your partner by the hand
and give a little wink
how huge can you grow up
how teeny-tiny can you shrink down
pat-a-cake pat-a-cake bakers man
and pat-a-cake bakers woman
gimme 5 and gimme 10
one more time let's do it again
gimme 5 and gimme 10
do it again and again and again
and again and again and again and
again….
ring around the rosie…
cows in the grassy meadow…
horses in the pasture
nibblin' on some hay
ashes ashes ashes
we all swing and sway
kitty cat on the barn roof
groomin' her glossy coat
ashes ashes ashes
we all rock and row the boat
ducks in a little duck pond
divin' for peanuts
ashes ashes ashes
we all waddle and strut
goats diggin' through the trash heap
chompin' down some junk
ashes ashes ashes
we like funk, a-chicka-ow! chick-achickens
in the hen house
layin' a bunch of eggs
ashes ashes ashes
we all shake an arm and a leg
rooster swaggerin' 'round the barnyard
cockling his doodle doo
ashes ashes ashes
we all say, "I love you!
sheep chillin' in the green fields
shearin' off some fleece
ashes ashes ashes
we all make peace
pigs in a muddy puddle
chowin' down on some slop
ashes ashes ashes
we all just stop!
